[PATCH 05/16] mm/hmm/test: remove redundant page table invalidate

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



When migrating pages to or from device private memory, the device's
page tables will be invalidated as part of migrate_vma_setup() locking
and isolating the pages. The HMM self test driver doesn't need to
invalidate the page table a second time after migrating pages to system
memory so remove that bit of extra code.
